Ahead of the second Test against the West Indies, Indian captain Rohit Sharma dismissed the possibility of major changes to the winning combination. While the team secured an impressive victory in the series opener in Dominica with a well-balanced playing XI, the inclement weather at Queens Park Oval has made it challenging to gauge the pitch conditions.

In the previous game, India opted for three seam bowlers and two frontline spinners, accompanied by Ishan Kishan as the wicketkeeper and Yashasvi Jaiswal as the opening batter,

“In Dominica, we had a clear idea when we saw the pitch and knew the conditions. Here, we don’t have clarity as there is talk of rain, but I don’t think there will be drastic changes. But whatever conditions are available, based on that, we will make that decision,” Rohit noted.

India are leading the two-match series 1-0 after winning the first test by a massive margin of an innings and 141 runs.
